I ripped this album myself from an old vinyl record, and cleaned it up/remastered the raw audio myself as well.

This album is The Uncalled Four (Plus One) - The Uncalled Four (Plus One) at the Treasure Island. It's a 9-track album of live Dixieland Jazz music played at the Treasure Island Lounge in Stevens Point, WI, on May 14th, 1968. My grandfather is the drummer on this record.

A far as I'm aware, this record doesn't exist online (in a digital format) in any way, shape, or form. An eBay search a while back turned up only 3 copies of the original pressing from 1968, one of which I purchased for archival purposes.

The cover was very degraded and some text was illegible, but I believe I have spelled everything correctly. If you're aware of any spelling errors, feel free to contact me about it and I'll fix it.

Nobody else besides my family and I, and the family members of the other musicians on the record, may care about this album at all, but it's completely inaccessible unless you own a turntable - I wanted to put it out there for listening, so it isn't lost forever. My grandfather is approaching 90 years old at the time of writing, and he can no longer play the drums. I don't want his music to be lost to a select few people.
